    I also have those hubs on my Triumph and like your CCM MP they are on 28" rims with 32 spoke on the front and 40 on the rear. MP if you need tires for your 28" rims they are the same as modern 700c (622mm). They do have a similar look don't they? Vroom

    Todays "1951 CCM" find....

    :D According to my books,26x2x1 3/4 is canadian size this has a rim bead size of 571mm and standard 26" are 559 mm. If you take an old MB tire (559mm) and try it on your ccm rim that should tell us. Good Luck, Vroom!
